In consideration of the promises contained herein, SciPlay Parent Company, LLC, 6601 Bermuda Road, Las Vegas, NV 89119 (the “Company”) and James Bombassei, (“you”), agree that:

WHEREAS, you have been employed by the Company since December 1, 2022 pursuant to an employment agreement (the “Employment Agreement”);

WHEREAS, your employment with the Company ended on February 18, 2023; and

WHEREAS, you and the Company wish to resolve all matters related to your employment with the Company, on the terms and conditions expressed in this Agreement and General Release (“Agreement”).

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein, the parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

1.Last Day of Employment. Your last day of employment with the Company was February 18, 2023 (the “Separation Date”). The Employment Agreement terminated on that date, except that any provisions in the Employment Agreement designed to survive termination will survive.

2.Severance Benefits In Return for Signing.

a.Severance Benefits. In return for your signing this Agreement and complying with the promises made by you in this Agreement and the Employment Agreement, the Company will provide you with the following severance benefits (the “Severance Benefits”) described below in subsections (i)-(iv). You acknowledge and agree that the Severance Benefits are separate from and in addition to what you are already entitled to receive from the Company. The Severance Benefits are:

i.The Company will pay you an amount equal to your annual base salary of $450,000.00, less required and/or authorized deductions and withholdings (including withholding at the supplemental rate as required), in bi-weekly installments and on the Company’s regular pay days and in accordance with the Company’s payroll practices over a twelve (12) month period. Such payments shall commence within the first full payroll period after the Effective Date (as defined in Section 12(b) of this Agreement) and the first payment shall include any amount that would have been paid if this Agreement was effective on the Separation Date, offset as necessary by any base salary paid to you for the period between the Separation Date and the date the first payment is made to you pursuant to this Section 2(a)(i).

ii.No later than March 15, 2023, a Company representative will notify you if bonuses for the 2022 Fiscal Year under the Company’s Incentive Compensation Plan are approved for payment by the Compensation Committee. If approved, then no later than March 15, 2023, the Company will pay you a lump sum amount, subject to applicable withholdings, in the amount of any Target Bonus that would have been payable to you for Fiscal Year 2022, calculated and as approved by the Compensation Committee and without any upward or downward adjustment. As provided in Section 3(b) of your Employment Agreement, any bonus paid to you will be pro-rated to reflect that you worked for the Company for one month in 2022.

iii.No later than March 15, 2024, a Company representative will notify you if bonuses for the 2023 Fiscal Year under the Company’s Incentive Compensation Plan are approved for payment by the Compensation Committee. If approved, then no later than March 15, 2024, the Company will pay you a lump sum amount, subject to applicable withholdings, in the amount of any Target Bonus that would have been payable to you for Fiscal Year 2023,



calculated and as approved by the Compensation Committee and without any upward or downward adjustment. Any bonus paid to you for the 2023 Fiscal Year will be pro-rated using the formula set forth in Section 4(e)(iii) of your Employment Agreement.

iv.If you choose to continue your health insurance by properly and timely electing COBRA coverage under and pursuant to COBRA, 29 U.S.C. § 1161 et seq., the Company will pay the employee and employer share of the premiums (based on your current coverage elections) for up to a maximum of twelve (12) months (the "COBRA Payment Period"). You acknowledge the COBRA Payment Period will end early if you become eligible for medical coverage from a new employer and you agree that you will immediately notify the Company in writing if you become eligible for such coverage by sending an e-mail to the Company's Chief Legal Officer. During the COBRA Payment Period, the premiums will be paid by the Company directly to the provider. After the COBRA Payment Period, you will be responsible for paying the entire COBRA premium on a timely basis if, and for as long as, you choose to elect COBRA continuation coverage, and to the extent that you remain eligible for COBRA continuation coverage as provided by state and federal laws. You will receive information on your opportunity to elect COBRA coverage under separate cover.

b.Additional Obligations. Additionally, the Company acknowledges the following obligations to you:

i.The Company shall pay you your regular base salary, accrued and unpaid up to and including the Separation Date pursuant to applicable law, less required and/or authorized deductions and withholdings, and payable in accordance with Company’s regular payroll practices;

ii.The Company agrees to reimburse you for all reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket business-related expenses you incurred at the request of the Company prior to the Separation Date, provided that you shall submit reasonable documentation of such expenses prior to the Effective Date and in accordance with the applicable Company policy; and

iii.Following the Separation Date, you shall be entitled to any amount arising from your participation in, or benefits under, any employee benefit plans, programs or arrangements that become payable as a result of your separation from the Company, which amounts shall be payable in accordance with the terms and conditions of such employee benefit plans, programs or arrangements and pursuant to applicable law.

c.No Other Benefits. Except as provided in this Agreement, you shall not be entitled to receive any other payment, benefit or other form of compensation as a result of your employment or the termination thereof. You acknowledge that all unvested equity awards granted to you by the Company and/or Light & Wonder, Inc., that are unvested as of the Separation Date are forfeited as of the Separation Date, including any time-vesting restricted stock units (including the unvested portions of your Sign-On Award and your Light & Wonder, Inc. Time-Vested RSUs), performance-conditioned restricted stock units, stock options or cash grants. You further acknowledge that any entitlements pursuant to the Company’s SEIP are forfeited as of the Separation Date.

d.Tax Withholding. All payments made by the Company to you hereunder except for COBRA payments and expense reimbursements shall be subject to all applicable withholding deductions.

3. No Severance Benefits Unless You Sign this Agreement and Do Not Revoke It. You understand and agree that you will not receive any of the Severance Benefits specified in Section 2 above unless: (a) you sign and return a fully signed copy of this Agreement within the time period specified below and do not revoke or rescind this Agreement within the time period specified below, and (b) you fulfill the promises contained herein in all material respects.

(b) You agree that you shall not solicit, encourage, assist or participate (directly or indirectly) in bringing any Claims or actions against any of the Released Parties by other current or former employees, officers or third parties, except as compelled by subpoena or other court order or legal process, and only after providing the Company with prior notice of any such subpoena, order or legal process and an opportunity to timely contest such process.

(c) You represent and warrant that you have not filed any administrative, judicial or other form of complaint or initiated any claim, charge, complaint or formal legal proceeding, nor are you a party to any such claim, against any of the Released Parties, and that you will not make such a filing at any time hereafter based on any events or omissions occurring prior to the date of execution of this Agreement.
